Love the effects on the items. The tutorial is also a really nice and helpful addition!

kurrik 2021-10-04 23:07

Wow, there are a lot of cool systems here. I really appreciated the tutorial which made it easy to understand how to play. The graphics and animations are great too! It's really impressive how much you got done. Only real downside for me is that it's really very difficult!

I really enjoyed the voxel art style in this!

terabyte 2021-10-04 23:08

All the tutorials are present. It's good! The graphics are interesting. Good job!

The graphics for this game fit so perfectly. There's so many aspects to it with the chests, item washing, combining, crafting, tutorial level and the rest - you can tell a lot of effort has gone into this! I find it a little difficult to understand at first, even with the tutorial, but once you get past that it's good fun! Kudos for including WebGL too :)

Awesome game, loved the graphics and concept!

april-lehman 2021-10-04 23:16

Nice original idea. We liked the graphics a lot and found the idea of the game very compelling. It was a bit on the hard side when we tried to play (after watching the tutorial). Maybe consider having an easy mode or easier level. But great job!

Found it tricky to tell the required items apart at first. Much easier once I made fullscreen.

I find this to be a very pleasing game. It reminds me of something of games like overcooked where there's recipes you have to follow. There's just so many aspects to the game that Imma commend for the hard work and effort in 3 days!

It's definitely hard at first though

kutaryoushinkoku 2021-10-05 07:52

Nice game! I love not only the gameplay and also the effects when material is processed.

astropower 2021-10-05 07:56

Perfect graphic, I really like the voxel style. And the full tutorial helps me understand the game concepts well.

Awesome work! there's a little bit too much delay with picking things up and controlling the inventory is a bit tricky

dangribanovsky 2021-10-05 08:14

you managed to create so much in just 3 days that's incredible! love voxels, tutorial is surprisingly good

I like this, a very clear concept with a solid style to it. I wish there were some more audio effects for actions, though. Item pickups, item drops, dropping items on the machines, movement. That would've really made things feel a lot more tactile.

After I lost on the second planet it ended the whole game and made me restart on the first planet, which I felt was a little harsh. I wish progress was kept, then I would have played more of it.

A very solid entry!

I like the voxel art and the effects and the fact that you can forge, wash and craft stuff out of the materials. It's hard to tell the different 工 shaped thingy from each other tho.

Adorable little game!

nshbae 2021-10-05 11:27

Nice boxel graphic and smooth motions! Love that idea of lowering unstable lava level with specific recipe. How about adding stage selector or difficulty selector for light users?

tekk 2021-10-05 11:36

@nshbae yea, i think that would be great. thanks for playing!

becky-rayner 2021-10-05 13:38

Cute little game, love the concept and the robot is adorable. Controls are really smooth and clear as well! Well done :D

misaravensoul 2021-10-05 15:55

Wow, those controls are so smooth and the art is cute. This actually reminded me of No Man's Sky right off the bat in terms of mood, so I liked that a lot!

justcamh 2021-10-05 16:14

Hey guys, thanks for submitting the game to the stream, it was a good time! Here's the vod if you'd like to rewatch; https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1167974254

menta 2021-10-05 16:41

@justcamh great feedback, thank you so much!

doc-kaos 2021-10-05 19:21

I've destroyed so many planets this Jam ...

Great job on this. Thanks for letting me play!

anthony-servedio 2021-10-06 12:02

I liked this game. It was a good idea to put the tutorial in, helped me out. Graphics were great and I like the concept. Good job!

brads-space 2021-10-07 13:27

Really cool idea and the graphics are great. I think each level is a little too long.

2021-10-12 13:48

Really nice game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 49 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/gL5Jq5zIm84

varundevs 2021-10-20 13:36

Cool

negator2vc 2021-10-20 15:17
